BIOS: USA v02.00, HACKS: MTVU, Minor lag in videos (sound offset), To be fair ran just fine except for loading screen/video lag and sound offset. I'm also creating a backup, so that may be part of it. Sikotik13

EE/VU Rounding: Chop/Zero, Game at steady 40-60 FPS, 60 FPS in menus and paused and 40-55 during racing, steady 40-45 in the garage., Some graphical errors, such as the letters being invisible on the profile creation screen and graphical mish-mash appearing if you turn the things in the garage too fast.

BIOS: USA v02.30 - Audio latency has a huge impact on input lag / graphics issues, for me best setup was XAudio2, ASync Mix and 28ms latency. DirectX config is more prone to glitchy lighting. Game plays 99% with new revisions to OpenGL Hardware renderer. Enabled 8 Bit Textures, Partial CRC, HW Hacks. All Speed Hacks on but no change to EE (seems to encourage lighting glitch again). Running with Frame Limiter ON, internal V-SYNC OFF, Adaptive V-Sync set in Nvidia Control Panel; gave the smoothest gameplay after many tests with other configs. 60FPS & next to no slowdowns. Added "UserHacks_DisablePartialInvalidation=1" to the end of %PCSX_DIR%\inis\GSdx.ini - unsure on result of this but have seen advised for this title. ••Nvidia driver 436.02 allows Low Latency Mode - this also reduces input lag. cZr


Trivia


Known Issues

Graphic bugs in Hardware renderers

  • Status: Active
  • Type: Minor
  • Description: While using any of the Hardware renderers, there will be a line visible that changes (gets larger) depending on the driving speed. This happens in both Direct3D and OpenGL Hardware renderers.
  • Workaround: Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings > Switch to any of the Software renderers.
